Fight DCFS CPS Articles

Fight CPS DCFS Articles help parents prepare to Fight DCFS CPS agencies and the social workers who collect and supply evidence. Los Angeles DCFS and CPS departments throughout California and the U.S. become the “accusers” and parents must learn how the system works, how to find an attorney, and how to FIGHT CPS & DCFS and win their kids back: get their lives back!

Parents rarely expect to Fight DCFS CPS. Unfortunately for the parents and relatives of minor children, Los Angeles DCFS and CPS (Child Protective Services) county departments throughout California and across United States become the “accusers” of parent’s wrongdoing. DCFS CPS social workers and investigators are supposed to be impartial, but a serious percentage are not! Social workers often become cynical and assume that EVERY accuser (even accused via an anonymous phone caller) is GUILTY of being a bad parent, and ‘surely’ the child is in imminent danger.

Parents are FORCED to fight DCFS CPS agencies because many DCFS social workers bring their own personal agendas to their positions of power. Power is magnified because their actions are backed and supported by a government agency with the power to take parents children from them. We have many parent who have shared stories that on the initial surprise knock on their door by a social worker, the social worker brought INTIMIDATING backup: the police!

While some initial calls might warrant a police officer accompanying a social worker on a surprise visit, many visits do not. It is a scary tatic; considered a ‘useful tactic’ and a shortcut for many social workers to force an interview without time to consult an attorney or have an attorney there for an interview. Bringing the police is a ploy designed to intimidate you to agree (against your better instincts) to open your door RIGHT NOW, allow two government agents from two powerful government agencies to look around the inside of your home, do a in-home inspection that you need NOT legally agree, collect evidence to support their case, a have an interview with you you probably should not grant!

Some DCFS social workers routinely call their ‘police buddies” to meet them for first time visits, no matter the severity or credibility of the accusation or reason for the visit. Consider a busy, mom surprised by two government agents, both with badges, one in full police uniform with gun, taser, radio, and the power and authority our culture invests in law enforcement!

For California parents, as well as parents across America, we have a treasure trove of articles on this website so you can learn what you are up against. It’s not pretty. DCFS and CPS social workers often enfuse their own anti-parent, personal agendas into their work for the government. And, you must fully understand, CPS and DCFS employees have the full power and deep pockets of the government behind them, which can come down hard on you, overwhelming you, a powerless individual; a mere citizen.

As an individual, as a citizen, you DO have Civil Rights, but frankly, unless you are willing to fight for your Civil Rights, you will likely be run over and flattened by the power of the bureaucracy of the various State and County governments’ steamrollers.
